Youth and Graduates

Wes Anderson's films are always difficult to spoil. The plot is simple, but the weirdness and warmth of the essence are difficult to convey. When watching the film, I remembered the graduates who were also talking about confused youth. It is also a child who is eager to grow up, but often has more than enough energy. The same obsession with mature women, but always in the end. However, among the graduates, they challenged moral taboos and boldly challenged the unbearableness of the adult world. The embarrassing actions of the male protagonist were somewhat comical. In this film, Wes obviously poured himself into the male lead. Therefore, he is not a learning genius, but a boy who is full of enthusiasm and can write scripts. He was also assigned a company boss who was also a child at heart.

Thinking of the youth films in China over the years, most of them treat adolescent teenagers like adults. With the condiment of the dog-blood love sentence, come a self-righteous growth. Although everyone matures at different speeds, the most fascinating thing about youth is curiosity and enthusiasm, and it hurts the inevitable emptiness of adults. I really hope that domestic youth films will also have such a pattern, and stop making gimmicks in gossip.

    Wes's scripts always disdain to play the so-called unspoken charm of second-rate literary directors. He expresses everything in his adolescence frankly, and the audience can understand the inside and outside of any characters without guessing their hearts. The charm born under such straightforwardness is the real masterpiece.
